I still think --rfc=WIP is a lot more natural and easier to understand, and it is just the matter of how you introduce it. I'll show you how in a separate patch later. The problem I see with an overly generic word like "label" is that it would mislead readers to say "--label=important" and expect it to appear on an extra e-mail header, not as a part of "Subject:". But we can do this to get the ball rolling, without bikeshedding what option name to use. Until we find a good name, users can use --rfc=WIP and when we do find a good name, it can be added as a synonym, possibly deprecating --rfc, and if we never agree on a good name, that is fine as well.
